Situated beyond the boundaries of the established [[Third Imperium|Imperium]], the Darrian subsector is named for the [[Darrian Confederation]], a loose interstellar community of about twenty worlds in various stages of development. Darrian is the oldest interstellar government in the Marches and boasts a higher technology level than any other world in the sector. {{Page cite|name=The Spinward Marches Campaign|page=18}}
 +
 +
The Darrian subsector is dominated by the Darrian Confederation, one of the five main governments in the Spinward Marches. Most Imperial citizens know only three facts about the Darrians: They have a high-tech society bordering upon {{TL|16}}, they are Imperial allies, and they have a sun-destroying super-weapon called the Star Trigger.{{Page cite|name=Behind the Claw|version=GURPS Traveller|page=45-46}}
 +
 +
Since the end of the Fifth Frontier War, the Darrians have entered a “Renaissance Period,” having retaken the Entropic Worlds from the Sword Worlders and annexed Nonym and Condaria. The entire subsector is now firmly under Darrian control. The destruction of the Sword Worlds trade mission on Ator in 1119 seems to indicate that the Darrians will not tolerate any other power having a foothold in their territory.

[[Darrian (world)|Darrian]] itself is an old decaying world depending on its past as a resource; art objects are a major export, although strictly controlled. Many local buildings and complexes are tech level 16, but the technology to maintain them has been lost. These ruins draw many visitors each year due to the Tech level being higher than both the [[Zhodani Consulate]] and [[Third Imperium]]. There are strict prohibitions on exporting pre-Maghiz items not art related.

Situated beyond the boundaries of the established Imperium, the Darrian subsector is named for the Darrian Confederation, a loose interstellar community of about twenty worlds in various stages of development. Darrian is the oldest interstellar government in the Marches and boasts a higher technology level than any other world in the sector. [1]

The Darrian subsector is dominated by the Darrian Confederation, one of the five main governments in the Spinward Marches. Most Imperial citizens know only three facts about the Darrians: They have a high-tech society bordering upon TL–16, they are Imperial allies, and they have a sun-destroying super-weapon called the Star Trigger.[2]

Since the end of the Fifth Frontier War, the Darrians have entered a “Renaissance Period,” having retaken the Entropic Worlds from the Sword Worlders and annexed Nonym and Condaria. The entire subsector is now firmly under Darrian control. The destruction of the Sword Worlds trade mission on Ator in 1119 seems to indicate that the Darrians will not tolerate any other power having a foothold in their territory.

Physical Astrography

Darrian itself is an old decaying world depending on its past as a resource; art objects are a major export, although strictly controlled. Many local buildings and complexes are tech level 16, but the technology to maintain them has been lost. These ruins draw many visitors each year due to the Tech level being higher than both the Zhodani Consulate and Third Imperium. There are strict prohibitions on exporting pre-Maghiz items not art related.

With connections to the industrial world of Zamine and the breadbaskets of Engrange, Roget, and Condaria, the Darrian Confederation has maintained its independence against the pressures of its larger neighbors.

Mains and Branches

Traces and Clusters

Technically the Darrian Cluster is part of the Spinward Main, but since access to the rest of the main requires transiting through the Gram Arm of the Sword Worlds, astrographical convenience is overruled by local politics.

Native Sophonts

The following races (sophont species) are believed to have originated in this area:

  • Terragens (Non-human Terran races)

Politics and Diplomacy : Milieu 1116

Darrian, subsector I of Spinward Marches contains 29 worlds with an estimated population of 15 billion, a per capita income of Cr7,901, and a total economy is BCr122,393. These worlds originate an interstellar trade of BCr1,455 through 21 starports (4 Class A, 6 Class B, 7 Class C, 4 Class D) employing 746,185 people. Driving this interstellar trade are seven Agricultural (Ag) worlds, five Non-Agricultural (Na) worlds, two Pre-Agricultural (Pa) worlds, three Pre-Industrial (Pi) worlds, two Rich (Ri) worlds, and one Industrial (In) world. The governments in Darrian maintain five Military bases, and two Naval bases. The average technology level is 7 (with most between 4 and 11). The highest technology level is 16 at Darrian (Spinward Marches 0627).

Darrian, subsector I of Spinward Marches contains 41 stars and 296 identified planets; 17 monostellar systems, 12 binary systems, no trinary systems, and no systems with four or more stars. 16 of the 29 systems (55%) have native gas giants. There are no Asteroid (As) belts, three Desert (De) worlds, three Garden (Ga) worlds, no Ice-capped (Ic) worlds, 12 Poor (Po) worlds, one Vacuum (Va) world, and no Water (Wa) or Ocean (Oc) worlds.

Darrian has an estimated population of 15 billion distributed across three High population (Hi) worlds, three Moderate population (Ph) worlds, 12 Non-industrial (Ni) worlds, five Low population (Lo) worlds, and two Barren (Ba) worlds. The highest population world is Mire (Spinward Marches 0527). The population consists of 5 sophont groups including three native sophonts.

5 identified sophont populations in Darrian


Darrian Confederation

The Darrian Confederation has jurisdiction over 18 worlds with an estimated population of 14 billion, a per capita income of Cr8,218, and a total economy is BCr119,954. These worlds originate an interstellar trade of BCr1,449 through 15 starports (3 Class A, 5 Class B, 5 Class C, 2 Class D) employing 743,955 people. Driving this interstellar trade are five Agricultural (Ag) worlds, three Non-Agricultural (Na) worlds, two Pre-Agricultural (Pa) worlds, one Pre-Industrial (Pi) world, two Rich (Ri) worlds, and one Industrial (In) world. The governments in Darrian Confederation maintain four Military bases, and two Naval bases. The average technology level is 8 (with most between 4 and 12). The highest technology level is 16 at Darrian (Spinward Marches 0627).

The Darrian Confederation has an estimated population of 14 billion distributed across three High population (Hi) worlds, one Moderate population (Ph) world, eight Non-industrial (Ni) worlds, two Low population (Lo) worlds, and one Barren (Ba) world. The highest population world is Mire (Spinward Marches 0527). The population consists of 3 sophont groups including two native sophonts.

Non-Aligned, Human-dominated

There are eight Non-Aligned Human-dominated worlds in Darrian with an estimated population of 890 million.

Client state, Third Imperium

The Client states of the Third Imperium in Darrian encompasses two worlds with an estimated population of 3 million.

Non-Aligned, unclaimed

There are one Non-Aligned unclaimed worlds in Darrian with an estimated population of less than 1 million.

Demographics

Significant populations of the following races (sophont species) reside within this subsector:

  • Terragens (Non-human Terran races)
